​Bristol make the perfect start to the season. Defeating last years defending league champions South Wales Handball and putting an end to their long unbeaten run with a 33 -24 victory.

The team welcomed back returning players Jaun and Grzesiek into the nine man match day squad along with debuts from Mathis, Nandor & Jonas. Who from the first whistle took control of the game combining a strong defensive effort with some critical attacking plays. Which seen every BHC player make it on to the score sheet. A notable mention also to our custodian and man of the match at the back of the court Nandor, along with Marc (SWH Goalkeeper) without these two on court the scores could of been much higher.

Jonas led the team on the score sheet with seven goals, with both Mathis and Grzesiek close behind on six goals respectively.

​ Also a massive thank you to Shahram, Angela, Zsofi and Maria for traveling down to officiate the match.

Tenacious in defeat.

Monday 26th October 2017

Our ladies suffered a frustrating afternoon away from home, in the lioness's den down in Reading on Sunday. Taking on the back -to-back regional champions in the season opener was never going to be an easy task. From the first throw Reading showed their dominance in both attack and defence giving them an early lead which continued into the break
. (HT: 16-4)

​Despite the score line Bristol never backed down throughout the match and tried to reverse the damage done in the first half, but unfortunately the second half played out much like the first. With a notable mention going to the Readingkeeper pulling off multiple saves to shut Bristol out. (38 saves)

The final score ended in a 28-8 loss for Bristol.

Pool of talent.

Monday 9th October 2017

The ladies included two debutants, Fanni and Angie and both enjoyed a strong start. The game was really competitive throughout with Bristol establishing the edge midway through the first half as confidence and understanding through the team started to build. Stroud featured a number of new players themselves and played well and in good spirit with their young Goalkeeper pulling off a number of impressive saves. Vilma on her return to the team scored 8, with Aggie just behind her on 7, but there were goals throughout the team. The final score for the friendly was a 30-24 victory for Bristol. Like the men's team that played before, the ladies showed they have a pool of talent with which to build an exciting team for the year.

Positive start for the up and coming season.

Monday 9th October 2017

​The men's team featured six first timers in red of the nine that travelled to Stroud (Attila, Jordi, Nandor, Tamas, Mathis, and Jonas) and we welcomed back Kev Hill, who'd spent 2016-17 recovering from a knee injury. Unfortunately one of the debutants, Attila suffered an injury of his own at the start of the day and looks like he'll be on the sidelines for a number of weeks. The remaining eight players put in a really strong and controlled performance to win 33-18. Mathis and Karim both wading in with a hatful of goals each with 12 and 11 respectively. A solid and good natured workout for the men and a nice understanding developing already between the players new and old alike.

YOUTH HANDBALL.
